The Lobsterman Triathlon - TriathlonOlympic

Overall I was really happy with my swim. My goal all summer was to break the 30 minute mark.

Only real complaint about the swim was it would have been nice to have a couple more markers along the way. The three buoys your turned at were huge but far apart. I basically followed the crowd and hoped I was going the right direction at each turn since you could not see the next marker.

It did not bother me at all but this was by far the roughest swim I have ever had. Lots of pushing, elbowing, and overall just jack ass swimming by some.

Practice spotting distance more.

I was happy with how fast I was able to get my wetsuit off. In previous races I had struggled with this.

Keep practicing.

Best bike course! Very scenic. The race site tells you it is a hilly challenging course and they do not lie. No real problems on the bike. Was able to get into a good rhythm and cruise through most of it.

get more comfortable on the run so I can push it a little harder on the bike.

The guy next to me racked his bike in my spot so I had to move his bike!

Keep practicing

Really happy with my run time. I worked all winter and spring on getting faster. I was able to bring my average mile down from 10:34 to 8:52.

Run course is up hill for the first 1 then down to 1.5 (approx) then rolling to 2 mi mark. From 2 to 4 mostly flat with a couple small rollers. 4 to 5.5 rolling with a couple large hills. then a nice down hill to the final little up hill finish.

get to the track and keep working at it.

Walk around and stretch


I was able to beat all my time goals in each sport. I really ran the best race I possible could have. It was a great way to end the season.

Hopefully I am able to build on this for next year. Keep working on the run time.
